RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Predictors of virologic failure in those receiving long-acting injectable (LAI) cabotegravir/rilpivirine (CAB/RPV) have been evaluated; however, factors associated with low-level viremia, including blips and persistent low-level viremia (pLLV), are not well-described. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was performed using data from April 2021 through December 2022. Inclusion criteria included treatment with CAB/RPV for at least 3 months, availability of pre- and postswitch HIV RNA values, HIV RNA value of <200 copies/mL (cpm) at the time of switch to CAB/RPV, and at least 1 postswitch HIV RNA collected >21 days after the start of CAB/RPV. Outcomes included incidence of HIV RNA ≥20, ≥50, and ≥200 cpm after switch and factors associated with detectable HIV RNA after switch. RESULTS: The median duration of follow-up among 144 participants was 287 days. After switching to CAB/RPV, occurrences of at least 1 HIV RNA ≥20, ≥50, and ≥200 cpm after switch were 34.7%, 15.3%, and 2.8%, respectively. Those with pLLV before switch were significantly more likely to have detectable HIV RNA after switch [hazard ratio 24.39 (8.71-68.34)], and 44.4% of those with pLLV before switch continued with pLLV after switch to LAI CAB/RPV. Body mass index, late injection, and monthly versus every two-month dosing were not associated with detectable viremia after switch. CONCLUSIONS: Despite virologic suppression at the time of switch and the perceived adherence benefits, participants still experienced blips or pLLV after switch to LAI CAB/RPV. Having detectable HIV RNA on oral therapy before switch was associated with detectable HIV RNA after switching.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The methamphetamine epidemic threatens progress towards ending the HIV epidemic in the United States. Further characterizing the prevalence and impact of methamphetamine use among people with HIV (PWH) is necessary to inform integrated HIV and methamphetamine treatment strategies. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective chart review to characterize methamphetamine use among 3,092 PWH at an urban HIV Medicine clinic between July 1, 2022 and June 30, 2023. The Chi-squared test was utilized to assess for statistically significant differences in demographics and HIV and other health outcomes among PWH who use and do not use methamphetamine. RESULTS: The prevalence of methamphetamine use among PWH in this cohort was 17%. PWH who used methamphetamine were more likely to be < 40 years of age, identify as White race, live in neighborhoods with low Healthy Places Index scores, identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual, report male sex with men (MSM), MSM and injection drug use (IDU), or IDU as HIV transmission risk factor, miss scheduled HIV primary care visits, and screen positive for hepatitis C virus antibody, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and major depressive disorder. PWH who use methamphetamine were also less likely to be virally suppressed and have a CD4 count ≥ 200 cells/mm3. CONCLUSION: Methamphetamine use is prevalent among PWH at this urban HIV Medicine Clinic and is associated with worse HIV and other health outcomes which likely increase the risk of HIV transmission. The integration of methamphetamine use disorder treatment into HIV primary care is necessary to work toward ending the syndemics of methamphetamine and HIV.

RESUMO

Background: Injectable cabotegravir (CAB)/rilpivirine (RPV) is the only combination long-acting (LA) antiretroviral regimen approved for HIV. RPV may not be effective among individuals with non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) resistance, which has >10% prevalence in many countries. Lenacapavir (LEN) is an LA capsid inhibitor given every 6 months, but has not been studied in combination with other LA agents. Methods: We assembled a case series from 4 US academic medical centers where patients with adherence challenges were prescribed LEN subcutaneously every 26 weeks/CAB (+/- RPV) intramuscularly every 4 or 8 weeks. Descriptive statistics, including viral load (VL) outcomes, were summarized. Results: All patients (n = 34: 76% male; 24% cis/trans female; 41% Black; 38% Latino/a; median age [range], 47 [28-75] years; 29% and 71% on CAB every 4 or 8 weeks) reported challenges adhering to oral ART. The reasons for using LEN/CAB with or without RPV were documented or suspected NNRTI mutations (n = 21, 59%), integrase mutations (n = 5, 15%), high VL (n = 6, 18%), or continued viremia on CAB/RPV alone (n = 4, 12%). Injection site reactions on LA LEN were reported in 44% (32% grade I, 12% grade 2). All patients but 2 (32/34; 94%) were suppressed (VL <75 copies/mL) after starting LEN at a median (range) of 8 (4-16) weeks, with 16/34 (47%) suppressed at baseline. Conclusions: In this case series of 34 patients on LEN/CAB, high rates of virologic suppression (94%) were observed. Reasons for using LEN/CAB included adherence challenges and underlying resistance, mostly to NNRTIs. These data support a clinical trial of LEN/CAB among persons with NNRTI resistance.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Few studies have examined which subgroups of people with HIV (PWH) carry the greatest burden of internalized HIV stigma (IHS), which may be important to care provision and interventions. METHODS: PWH in the CFAR Network of Integrated Clinical Systems (CNICS) longitudinal, US-based, multisite, clinical care cohort completed tablet-based assessments during clinic visits including a four-item, Likert scale (low 1-5 high), IHS instrument. Associations between sociodemographic characteristics and IHS scores were assessed in adjusted linear regression models. RESULTS: Twelve thousand six hundred and fifty-six PWH completed the IHS assessment at least once from February 2016 to November 2022, providing 28 559 IHS assessments. At baseline IHS assessment, the mean age was 49 years, 41% reported White, 38% Black/African American, and 16% Latine race/ethnicity, and 80% were cisgender men. The mean IHS score was 2.04, with all subgroups represented among those endorsing IHS. In regression analyses, younger PWH and those in care fewer years had higher IHS scores. In addition, cisgender women vs. cisgender men, PWH residing in the West vs. the Southeast, and those with sexual identities other than gay/lesbian had higher IHS scores. Compared with White-identifying PWH, those who identified with Black/African American or Latine race/ethnicity had lower IHS scores. Age stratification revealed patterns related to age category, including specific age-related differences by gender, geographic region and race/ethnicity. DISCUSSION: IHS is prevalent among PWH, with differential burden by subgroups of PWH. These findings highlight the benefits of routine screening for IHS and suggest the need for targeting/tailoring interventions to reduce IHS among PWH.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Although stroke risk associated with HIV may be greater for women than men, little is known about whether the impact of different factors on cerebrovascular risk varies by sex in people with HIV (PWH) and contributes to stroke risk disparities in this population. The primary objective of this study was to examine whether sex modifies the effect of demographics, cardiometabolic factors, health-related behaviors, and HIV-specific variables on stroke risk in PWH from the Centers for AIDS Research Network of Integrated Clinical Systems (CNICS) cohort. METHODS: In this observational cohort study, we analyzed data from clinical encounters for PWH followed at 5 CNICS sites from approximately 2005 to 2020. All potential stroke events were adjudicated by neurologists. Patient-reported outcomes collected at clinic visits, including substance use and depression, were also available. We used Cox proportional hazards models to determine whether sex modified the association of predictors of interest with incident stroke. RESULTS: Among 13,573 PWH (19% female sex at birth, mean age 44 years, mean follow-up 5.6 years), female sex was associated with a higher risk of stroke only among individuals aged 50 years or younger (hazard ratio [HR] 2.01 at age 40 [1.25-3.21] vs HR 0.60 at age 60 [0.34-1.06]; p = 0.001 for the interaction). Younger female participants who developed a stroke were more likely to have treated hypertension, a higher cardiovascular risk score, and detectable HIV than younger male participants whereas these factors were comparable by sex among older participants who developed a stroke. Sex modified the effect of detectable HIV (HR 4.66 for female participants [2.48-8.74] vs HR 1.30 for male participants [0.83-2.03]; p = 0.001 for the interaction), methamphetamine use (HR 4.78 for female participants [1.47-15.56] vs HR 1.19 for male participants [0.62-2.29]; p = 0.04 for the interaction), and treated hypertension (HR 3.44 for female participants [1.74-6.81] vs HR 1.66 for male participants [1.14-2.41]; p = 0.06 for the interaction) on stroke risk. DISCUSSION: Younger female participants with HIV were at elevated cerebrovascular risk compared with younger male participants. Several risk factors had a greater adverse effect on stroke risk in female participants than in male participants, including HIV viremia, methamphetamine use, and treated hypertension. These findings underscore the importance of a personalized approach to predict and prevent cerebrovascular risk among PWH.
